Bark in the Park raises $2,200 for Lennie's Kids Bark in the Park, a fundraiser for Leonard Rizzo's organization Lennie's Kids, which works with the Foothills Humane Society to help find homes for animals, was held recently in Harmon Field. Rizzo says the event was a great success, raising more than $2,200 for his Lennie's Kids fund. Many businesses and organizations offered prizes to be raffled off and Gibbs Welding and Crane handled all the cooking and setting up for the event. According to Rizzo, all participants had a great time, including the dozens of dogs he got to meet and greet. "We even had a visit from Champ the wonderful therapy dog," Rizzo said. "We had so much fun, folks asked if we could do this each month. "One of my favorite parts of the day was offered to me by Stan, a sweet 16-year-old man-child.

Stan’s chore was to hand out flyers with a list of prizes and who donated them. Stan was diligent on this task and no one was missed – I personally received three of them. One of the prizes was a cell phone from Radio Shack and sweet Stan must have told me a dozen times, 'Mr. Lennie, I’ve put five tickets in for the cell phone. I really would like to have it, I’m the only one in my family A few of the dogs at the Bark in the Park fundraiser held recently at Harmon who doesn’t have one.” Field. (photo submitted) Rizzo said he wished Stan stood in front of him with a to the best worker at the event. Stan luck, wondering was At last it was time. his parents would do if Stan won look of hope and anticipation. “Mr. Lennie, when will we do “Next prize, a cell phone.” Stan the phone. He dismissed this was before Rizzo, his eyes bright as thought right away, he said, think- the phone?” he asked. “Soon, Stan, it’s coming up.” he shifted from one leg to another, ing they had done a fabulous job Rizzo said he decided that if Stan trying to curb his excitement. with Stan thus far and would work didn’t win, he would personally buy it out. “And the winner is Stan!” When the time arrived for Rizzo him a phone and tell him Radio Stan’s smile almost split his to draw tickets for the raffle, he said Shack donated another one to give face, Rizzo said.

*** The first of many electric-car charging stations in North Carolina was introduced in Raleigh this week. One of the stations is in front of City Hall, while another is near the city’s convention center. By September, Raleigh plans to have at least 30 stations, most of them near downtown public parking garages or N.C. State University’s Centennial Campus. About 350 recharging stations are expected in North Carolina next year. Most of them will be financed by federal stimulus money. The initial recharging stations, donated by Eaton Corp of Ohio, will use 9-foot cords to provide free electricity to electric cars. Raleigh officials said they formed a partnership with Indianapolis and Portland, Ore. Last year to help Raleigh become a leader in electric vehicles in the Southeast. Next summer Raleigh plans to host the annual electric car conference organized by the Electric Power Research Institute. The city already uses 10 hybrid vehicles for city work, and plans to get 10 electric vehicles next year. “We’re trying to get ahead of this, but also trying to anticipate consumer demand,” said Raleigh Mayor Charles Meeker.

Letter to the Editor

What is the government up to now? To the Editor: I see where a Mr. Tyner (I believe that’s his name) refused to go through a TSA body scan at an airport in San Diego claiming (and rightfully so) that it was an invasion of privacy. Then he was asked to go through a pat down and he said, OK, if you don’t touch my junk and we all know what he was referring to. When they explained that to him, he refused again, and said he’d just drive to his destination. Now they want to take him to court and fine him $10,000. What is the government up to now? Everyone over 12 years of age has to be subjected to this nutty regulation. Do you want your 13-year-old daughter being forced to put on a little TSA porn show in order to fly and see grandma or be fondled by some TSA inspector before getting on an airplane? If the average citizen touched anyone inappropriately like this they’d be arrested for sexual assault and in the case of a minor they’d be registered as a child molester, but these self-appointed gods of the universe who work for homeland security think it’s all right because they have a title. Who wants their wife to be subjected to some turkey taking indecent liberties on certain private parts of her anatomy? As the man in San Diego said, “Don’t touch my junk.” Bravo. “Sorry, lady. I’ve got to do a cavity search on you to make sure you’re not hiding a bazooka.” “No fingernail clippers. Hey, captain. Take this plane to Cuba or I’ll cut everybody’s toenails.” What’s next for the TSA’s obscene pleasure? Do we take off our clothes and put them in our check-on luggage and ride in the nude to our destination? Then when we get off the plane

Butlers experience benefits of Hospice of the Carolina Foothills by Maureen Smith for HoCF

2x2.5 11/26;12/3,10,17,24,31 pela 040154

Editor’s note: This article is one of a series during November that-highlights TRYonbapTisT page 31 the programs and services of Hospice of the Carolina Foothills during National Hospice and Palliative Care Month. Being first runs in Connie Mack Butler’s family. If the name Connie Mack sounds familiar, it is because his grandfather of the same name was a nationallyknown baseball icon. In fact, Connie Mack was the first major league manager whose team won three world series. Connie Mack Butler, no slouch himself when it came to baseball, was elected to the Rollins College Hall of Fame, and was recognized in local Florida newspapers as an “All American Outfielder” when he received the Rofle Tainter Batting Trophy. Success came “easily” to Connie, if you overlook his years at Rollins College playing baseball and basketball while struggling to earn a teaching degree and pulling a stint in the Army after graduation and working endless hours to start his own successful chemical company. “He was a real struggler. He worked hard all his life,” says his widow, Marie Butler. He didn’t give up that habit either when the two retired to Tryon, she explains. They both volunteered at Hospice of the Carolina Foothills, and when

Connie became seriously ill, he was one of the first in the area to experience the entire continuum of Hospice Care, beginning with Palliative Care. Palliative Care is a relatively new Hospice resource that partners with primary healthcare providers to help people living with serious illness have a better quality of life. Palliative care staff help manage and treat the patient’s physical symptoms caused by the illness, while also helping the patient and caregivers with changes and decisions that affect the whole family, Marie explains. “Connie went very smoothly from Palliative Care into Hospice Care,” says Marie. When the time came for Connie to be admitted to the Hospice House, it was another first for Connie Mack Butler’s family, as he was the first resident of the community’s brand new inpatient facility. “Our association with Hospice of the Carolina Foothills has been nothing but good all the way through. Connie and I enjoyed our volunteer work, and when Connie got sick, it was nice to know that all I had to do was call, and there was help on the other end of the phone,” says Marie. Marie says she continues to enjoy her work as a volunteer for Hospice of the Carolina Foothills. – article submitted

day season is invited to attend. “Handling Holiday Stress” is designed to start the process of empowerment by offering strategies to get this time of year under control. Panel discussion topics will include: “Families and Tradition;” “Divorce and Custody;” “Stress and the Body;” “Wellness in the New Year;” “Loneliness;” “Depression/Anxiety;” “Substance Abuse;” “Seasonal Affect Disorder;” and “Domestic Abuse.” After the panel has concluded its presentation, attendees will be encouraged to participate in a “question and answer” session. In addition, therapists, social workers and medical professionals will offer “breakout sessions” (such as teens and depression; addictions; domestic abuse; etc.) during the evening if there is a need. While this event alone cannot immediately eliminate some of the problems that may be discussed, the organizations involved hope that this will be the beginning of a journey to wellness for many who will attend. Polk Wellness Center is a nonprofit community of providers offering comprehensive health and wellness services in an atmosphere that fosters respect for all served, regardless of their ability to pay. Polk Wellness Center uses a comprehensive, integrated model to provide primary care, mental health/substance abuse, prevention, education, wellness, and recovery support services. – article submitted

“Early bird shoppers save 30 percent.” “Half off sale starts today.” “Buy one, get one free ends Saturday.” Tis the season and everyone’s searching for the perfect gift that doesn’t break the bank. The more money saved, the more there is to spend. Still, many of us struggle to find the perfect gift. What if, for just one day, you forget the sales and choose to save a life instead? Donating blood helps save up to three lives and the only cost is an hour of your time. If just 10 percent of Americans give blood this holiday season, 34.2 million lives might be saved. So, as you flip through circulars and scan retail web sites, take a moment to log on to redcrossblood.org or call 1-800RED CROSS and make an appointment to give blood.

Many of your neighbors have been broadsided and continue to Shutterbug? be dramatically affronted by the Share economic your Thermalsituation. Belt snapshots! current These news@tryondailybulletin.com neighbors worked hard in their professions and saved along the way, but as the economy worsened they were laid off after 25 years of working for their employer. Persistence at applying for new jobs is not paying off due to the stubborn and lagging job market, consequently they have been unable to find new employment. Unfortunately, keeping groceries in the pantry for their family has now exhausted all their savings. Desperate, and beyond their pride, they have had to apply for food stamps to keep food in their bellies. Did you know your neighbor secretly seeks and sells scrap metal and aluminum cans he finds on the side of the road to pay the utility bills? He or she has canvassed other neighborhoods looking for any sort of daily work. These are the same neighbors that owned and operated small businesses that were decimated by big box aggressive retailing and/or an unexpected stroke gave them the one-two punch that delivered the complete knock-out. But your neighbor will not be knocked down in perpetuity. Don’t underestimate their fortitude. These may be some of the most courageous people you will ever meet. Your moral compass, if only slightly wobbly at times, will be immediately recalibrated upon meeting them. You will be moved to tears and wildly inspired by your neighbor’s perseverance in the face of severe and unexpected adversity. So, as the holiday music plays merrily on the radio, remember, regardless of seasons, it is always the season for helping your neighbor, even if all they need is a little piece of duct tape to patch things up for now. – JoAnn Roser

Career fair held at PCHS Students from Polk County High School recently participated in a career fair under the direction of Deena Harris, career development coordinator, and sponsored by the Tryon Rotary Club. More than 70 business professionals volunteered their expertise and time representing 56 different careers. The purpose of the fair was to make students aware of skills, education and character needed to be competitive in the 21st century job market. Prior to the event, all freshmen, sophomores and juniors identified their interests by taking a career cluster survey. The assessment gave students an understanding of how all occupations are categorized into16 major career clusters. After individual results were calculated, students were able to learn about the general nature of those career clusters for which

they held the most interest. With all career clusters represented, students crowded into the fair to ask general questions related to educational requirements and beginning salaries. The young inquisitive group also asked questions related to the levels of math and communication skills needed to be competitive. Further conversation led to inquiries about work environments and how specific jobs could change by the time students enter the job market. The future work force also discussed personal characteristics and work ethics necessary to become a successful employee. Polk County High School students who attended the fair say they now have a clearer understanding of career clusters and specific occupations within each.

Students learn about government and public administration. (photo submitted)

Letter to the Editor

Do your own research about “Debt Free America Act”

To the Editor: I wish to respond to the letter written by Annette Koluch in which she urges us to write Burr and Shuler about the bill HR 4646 “Debt Free America Act.” Before you begin writing, I hope you will do your own research on the bill. In truth, bill HR 4646 is the “hobby horse” of Rep. Chaka Fattah, (D) Pa.– not introduced by Rep. Peter Fazio and Senator Tom Harkin as stated in the letter. “Hobby horse” is a term used to describe an issue about which a senator introduces legislation time after time, although the bills never come close to passing, or even clear committee to be put to votes. The earliest version of HR

Friday, November 26, 2010

4646 was put forward by Rep. Fattah in 2004. He then introduced similar bills in 2005, 2007, and 2009. None of these bills has ever been put to vote, and only one had so much as a single co-sponsor. In 2010, Rep. Fattah submitted yet another version of this bill. Ms. Koluch is correct in that it proposes a 1 percent fee on specified transactions. However, she failed to mention that the stated aim of the bill is to raise enough revenue to eliminate the national debt over a period of 7 years and to phase out the income tax on individuals. This bill has no co-sponsor and like his prior efforts, has been stuck in committee since it was introduced. It is hugely unlikely that “they are sneaking this in after the election, from the man who promised if you make under $250,000 per year, you will not see one penny of new tax,” as Ms. Koluch asserts. – Helen Trevathan

Tryon Daily Bulletin  /  The World’s Smallest Daily Newspaper

the advent of Our King Christians are on constant lookout for the return of their Lord Jesus Christ, God‘s incarnate Son. We believe he has come, is coming and will come again. Preparations for Christmas will begin in earnest the moment thanksgiving Day is over – at least in stores and malls and on internet sites that offer ―unbelievable‖ deals. Many Christians also begin a time of ―preparation‖ in church called advent. this is a four Sunday season of repentance and rejoicing that culminates in the Feast of the nativity of Our lord. the advent Season recalls God‘s promise to send His Son into the world to save the world from sin and its consequences and Jesus‘ own promise to return. as so many Christians prepare to celebrate Jesus‘ first coming as a holy Child in Bethlehem, they receive his present coming with gifts of forgiveness, life and salvation through his preached Word and holy Mysteries administered. and based on the revealed Word of God of the Old and new testaments, Christians everywhere can be certain of how Jesus is coming to them even now. For the Bible is God‘s own holy record of what he has accomplished for sinful mankind and will accomplish for all who repent of their sins and trust in his forgiving work. the Bible did not drop down from the sky, but was recorded as ―men moved by the holy Spirit spoke from God‖ (2 Peter 1:21). Presumably the first of the new testament writers was Matthew, an apostle of Jesus Christ. the words he wrote were immediately received as Word of God, as were those of Paul and the other disciples. For as Jesus said, ―My sheep hear My voice and I know them and they follow Me and i give them eternal life‖ (Jn 10:25). the early church did not wait for a church council or bishops to declare the writings inspired. ―in the mind of its writer and his hearers, the Gospel of Matthew stood on a level equal with the law and the prophets, those authoritative Scriptures that were the foundation for Israel‘s faith and that set the course for Jesus‘ life and death (Jesus said in Mt 26:24 ‗The Son of Man goes just as it is written concerning Him . . .‘)‖ [Discourses in Matthew, p. 110 by David Scaer]. Scaer asks, Could it be that documents that were quite literally changing the face of the world were not recognized as Scripture by the churches that were disseminating them? turning to Mark‘s Gospel we might ask, Did the miracles accompanying the preaching of the apostles, which Jesus promised in Mark 16, not have their intended effect? Did they not convince the hearers

paid advertisement

with those who actually saw and experienced these miracles that the holy Spirit was at work in all that the apostles said (and wrote)? Second century evidence shows that not the Old testament nor even Paul‘s epistles, but Matthew and luke held center stage in church life. Writing about a.D. 155, Justin Martyr used the same formula, ―It is written,‖ for quotes from Matthew as Matthew uses for quotes of the Old testament. and already from a.D. 150 we have explicit post apostolic references to the Gospels in the church‘s worship services. What Jesus said in Matthew 13:52 had come true, ―Therefore every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven [trained scribes for Jesus‘ kingdom!] is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.‖ Church ―canonization‖ of a document, which was formally completed at the end of the fourth century, was nothing more than a later explicit recognition that the church already had accepted something as Scripture through its own regular use in worship—for which documents Christians already had been willing to die as martyrs. indeed, there is in each of the new testament books its own internal testimony to inspiration so that by the Spirit‘s leading the church that had received Jesus as the Christ now received the writings of Jesus‘ apostles as gifts of God. Concerning God‘s gift to man, the Mystery of holy Baptism, Paul writes: ―Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish‖ (Ephesians 5:25-27).

It was for this ―washing of water with the Word‖ that the ethiopian eunuch stopped his chariot at the first sign of water and was baptized (acts 8). Some would turn Jesus‘ gift of water and Spirit Baptism, by which he himself comes with cleansing, into man‘s own work. Baptism is Christ‘s advent. It is nothing less. It is surely not an act of the human will. Behold, in Baptism Jesus comes to you personally. this gift of his coming, like his birth in Bethlehem, is real and it is received by faith alone. holy Scripture declares it. By your Baptism you are ―without spot or wrinkle,‖ ready for Christ‘s return. a blessed advent and Christmastide! Pastor thomas Olson trinity lutheran Church

Wolverines, Wolves meet in third round tonight by Joey Millwood

polk County football coach Bruce ollis and his team knew eventually they’d be on the road in the state playoffs. It was inevitable with the state championship being played at groves stadium in Wake Forest. “We’re taking a positive approach to this one,” ollis said who is hoping a tough road win at Lincolnton will prepare his team for the final two games, the latter being the state finals. Lincolnton, however, will be the Wolverines’ toughest task to date. the Wolves are 13-0 after hanging 44 points on Brevard in the first round of the state playoffs and 49 last week against Mountain Heritage. the Wolverines, however, may be hitting their stride at just the right time. “We are rushing the ball as well as we have all year,” ollis said. “this has allowed us

to have some time consuming drives, which keeps the opponent’s offense on the sideline and sets up very well for our play action passing game.” polk County had only one three and out drive last week in a 27-7 win over east rutherford. Defensively the Wolverines have been just as dominant. “our defense is playing very well along with forcing turnovers that enables our offense to get back on the field,” ollis said. offensively, the Wolves are lead by quarterback Brandon Wilson. Last week against Mountain Heritage, the option quarterback scored five touchdowns out of the seven scored by Lincolnton. Wilson ran for three, intercepted a pass for one and threw for another. “You must get a handle on their fullback and quarterback in order to put your team in

“I have been very impressed with our team’s demeanor and business-like approach to the playoffs,” Ollis said. “After our win over East Rutherford there was not a lot of celebrating as they knew that was just one part or piece to the playoff puzzle. There was already talk of preparation for our next opponent just minutes after our win.” -- Polk Head Coach Bruce Ollis

position to win,” ollis said. “They are a run first, pass second attack.” so what will the Wolverines have to do to win? “We will have to limit their option attack,” ollis said. “teams like Lincolnton thrive on playing keep away with the ball using their running game. We are going to have to take a similar approach.” are the Wolverines ready? “I have been very impressed

“My experience with the HCg Diet Program has been wonderful. i appreciate my caring physician for walking me through the information and educating me about health and how the body functions. After having been on numerous diets throughout the past 15 years, none have worked to remove the excess fat as the HCg Diet has done. The weight, in the past, has always returned. i have now lost a total of 47 pounds and a total of 51 inches in just 5 months. i highly recommend this diet for anyone who is tired of being on that seesaw of gaining and losing, and who has decided they will do whatever it takes to be healthy, and who is willing to follow a strict diet plan that in the end will result in a permanent solution to their weight problem. �

Be sure you check into all possibilities.
